Arthritis

Arthritis is an autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks healthy joint tissue, causing inflammation. It mainly affects small joints in the hands, feet, and ankles.

If left untreated, it can lead to permanent damage such as cartilage loss and bone erosion. About 1% of the population is affected, typically between ages 30 and 60. Women are at higher risk, especially with a family history or smoking. Early treatment is key to preventing long-term joint damage and deformities.

Arthritis Causes

Injuries can lead to wear-and-tear arthritis over time.
Metabolic issues, like gout and pseudogout, can cause joint problems.
Osteoarthritis may run in families, increasing the risk.
Infections, such as Lyme disease, can trigger arthritis.
Autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and lupus (SLE) can cause the immune system to attack the joints.

Arthritis Symptoms

Symptoms tend to be worse in the morning or after long periods of inactivity.
Joints become swollen, stiff, and painful, often feeling warm to the touch.
The condition usually affects both sides of the body equally.
People with arthritis experience flare-ups, where symptoms suddenly worsen.
Severe flare-ups can last anywhere from a few days to a month.
